As an
official Association publication we have to maintain a site free of advertisements.

Mystery!
Mystery! Mystery!

We have two mysteries
that need to be solved. Who has the answer to either one?

Mystery 1: What is the origin of the Yosemite
Sam Emblem? Who started it and when?
Clue: It came into being before "58".

Mystery 2: In the late 50's the Captain's Gig was a gift from the people of
Baltimore. There was a
Plaque commemorating this gift. After the gig came out second best in a meeting with
an
immovable object, it was replace by a standard "Naval" issue gig. The
question now is,
what happened to the plaque?
Clue: Ain't got a one.
